lhe main drive wheel IN the Eagle
Mill broke Monday night. As a result
I the mill has to be shut down until 8

has happened to the mill.

To cure dull times apply an advertise.
mentto The afflicted parts. People who
advertise only once in three months for
get that most folks cannot remember
anything longer than seven days. Keep
dropping your advertisements on the
public and they will melt under such
treatment.
Mrs. Magaretha Blessing Of West
Newton died at the residence of her
daughter, Mrs. Theresa Bassford, at
Grand Forks D. T. Wednesday last.
Mrs. Blessing had gone to Grand Forks
to nurse her daughter but,was taken ill
herself and died after short illness.
Her body was brought to West Newton
and inferred at that place.
Our nimrods will do well to remem-
ber that law, passed by the late legis-
lature, prohibits the killing of game in
the spring, 1t also prohibits the killing
of game on wild lands without having
previously obtained the consent of the
owner. Two game wardens may be
appointed for every county whose duty
it is to see that the game laws are en-
forced.
The tubular we'll at John Hauenstein' 5
brewery has been sunk 267 feet. An
abundant supply of water has been
struck, which rises 100 feet in the tube.
The Phelps Co. are now driving we'll
on NJ. Mullen's premises and will drive
one on J. Pfenningers German street
property next week. Nine tubular
wells have been driven in different parts
of the city during the last year.
While at Ceurtland last Friday our
reporter noted with pleasure the growth
and thrifty appearance of our neighbor-
ing village. We had the pleasure of
visiting Mr.. Doty's stables and seeing
his herd of Holsteins and were glad to
hear that Mr.. Doty's cattle wintered
nicely and were in good condition. We
hope to see them at our next fair, as
they will make quite an exhibit.
A New Ulm special to the St. Paul
GLOBE says-"At the peoples caucus
of the First ward Hon. George Doehne
and Albert Behnke were nominated for
alderman. This is a complete victory
for the Democrats. they gaining every
point asked.' We fail to see any dem.
ocratic victory in the above nomina-
tions. If it had been the desire of the
republicans of the first ward to make a
party nomination they could have done
SO as there are more republicans than
democrats in the ward.
Saturday evening the REVIEW man
made a trip to Redwood Falls. He
found quite a number of former New
Ulmites there and they all seemed to do
we'll. Sundays they generally hold re.
unions of New Ulm boys Nv. Brust, e.
Becker, John Lauterbach, A. Brandt,
Ph. Gruye, G. Koehler and julius Mel
ges), last Sunday afternoon the Review
representative was one of the party.
The boys have our thanks for favors
shown. We are also under obligations
to Mr.. and Mrs. JOS Lichtwerk. They
are always pleased to see New Ulm
people. ..e
In speaking Of the postal note an ex.
change says: "Let as see how this little
document is made to serve the convent
ence of the people. A person wishing
to send thirty cents in letter goes tc
a money order Office and procures q
postal note for this amount, paying as
fee three cents, or ten per cent Of the
amount remitted. He gets postal note
payable to bearer at any money orde,
Office in the United States. Now,
wherein is this safer than sending cur.
rency in a letter? The postal note is
payable to bearer; anyone rifing the
letter has something which can be con.
verted into currency anywhere, without
any questions being asked. Now sup.
pose the government should, for the
convenience of the public, print sheets
OF postal currency in denominations o1
one, five, twenty-five and fifty cents,
selnng them just as stamps are now
sold, would not all the purpose of the
new postal note be equally as, vel
served without the attendant expense
and tronble of the system? The posta
note, as it is, is better than a worse svs
tenn. and that is all we can say for it.
That something more in harmony with
correct business principles should take
its place is fact that is easily demon,
strated.''
Postmaster Henry j. Dane of Le
Sueur and Felix Bohrer of the same
place were arrested by U. S. Marshal
Campbell yesterday and brought before
Commissioners Spencer, on complaint
Of John B. Randall, of the same place
Randall expected pension draft from
Milwaukee and says he had told the
postmaster not toput it into Mr.. Bohrer's
box, as was done with the other mail.
The letter got into the box, however,
